Abstract

Abstract. This article describes the New Learning Environments in the Work of the Teacher (NET) development project in the Province of Lapland for university-level teaching methods. NET is organized by the Centre for Media Pedagogy and funded by the European Union's European Social Fund (ESF). Its objective is to improve and support the use of information and communications technology (ICT) in the work of university-level teachers and the teaching support staff. The article presents the content, some assessment principles, and the effectiveness of the NET study programme (15 cr.) developed during the project. The study programme will be realized twice in 2001-2002. The research into effectiveness of the study programme will examine the methodological and ontological commitments of empowerment-evaluation. Self-direction will be examined later in relation to meaningful learning, methods of guidance and to the more extensive, regional effectiveness of training.
